MuhIenberg Memorial service

In accordance with the resolution of the
Lutheran Ministerium at its meeting in
Philadelphia last June, that the centennial
of the death of Henry Melchior Mullen
berg, the founder of the Lutheran Church
in America, be observed with suitable
memoria! exercises, in all the congregat-
ions, during the month of October the con-
gregation of Trinity Lutheran Church, this
borough, held memorial service last Sun
day. The pastor, Rev. j. II. Kuder, as
sisted by Rev. w. FL. Strauss, conducted
the devotional exercises, Rev. C. ]. Cooper.
financial agent of Muhlenberg College
Allentown, Pa, delivered two highly in
teresting addresses on thepatriach Mullen
berg. While there were ministers of the
Lutheran denomination in America many
years before the days of Muhlenbere, il was
the latter who organized the church on a
substantial basis, unified the scattered and
struggling congregations and by his persist
ent efforts, pre-eminent ability and wise
foIethought established church which at
this time numbers one million communing
members, in America, and ranks as the
great Protestant denomination of the world.
Il was eminently proper that honor be paid
to this truly great man, whose impress on
the world will never be effaced. While
credit is due to all the early workers in the
church it is Muhlenberg TO whom the chief
honor attaches. Mr.. Cooper gave the early
history of the church patriarch, his thirst
for knowledge, the obstacles he had to
overcome, the friends he gained, his work
and experience in Germany and at Halle,
his labor in America and the grand results
following it. Both discourses were very
interesting and presented many new facts
in Muhlenberg's life.
The collections of this congregation
next Sunday, as also those of other congre-
cations on similar occasions, will 90 toward
the completion of the endowment of the
German Professorship of MuhIenberg
College.

THE MOST INGENIOUS REALITIES

THE MOST INGENIOUS REALITIES
Of this life are unquestionably the offspring
of some Imaginative mind that wandered
! through maze of seeming impractabilities
resulting eventually in an untols blessing
to humanity. A reality that is the delight
-and honor of the present age is the sewing
machine, and the degree of perfection to
which il has recently beef brought under
the management of the Davis Sewing
Machine Company, realizes the brightest
dreams of the most sanguine inventors
The new Vertical Feed, possessed by the
Davis alone, places 1t above all competitors.
Though frequent editorial mention of
this machine has been ma lie in these columns
and attention called to its merits and ad-
vantages almost weekly for months past,
we doubt If yet our readers haye any
adequate conception of the Improvements
possessed by this model of machines. For
excellence of workmanship, implicitly of
construction, and durability it has no equal

I'm an interview recently General Master
Workman Powderly said that it was no
doubt true that the number.of K. of L. were
fewer than they once were but that they
stand by each other better now. He said
there were great many who went into
the order through curiosity and the excite
ment of the times, but they did not have
the interests Of the movement at heart and
dropped out. On the question of politics,
he holds that the great mass of working
people are still wrong. They look too
high. They wish to reach the top of the
ladder at a bound, when experience teaches
that is folly. This is The most serious
question with which we have to deal. ad-
vocate now, and always haye, that it is the
small local offices that should be looked
after with an eternal vigilance. Let me
elect the assessor, and care not who elects
the President. 1t is the principle that /
wish to inculcate in the minds of working
men-that they should attend to their local
politics, and the affairs of State will take
care of themselves. If this can be accom-
plished. and have no doubt it can, then
the labor movement will have reached a
point where its foundation is secured. The
master workman may be right but we
doubt it, as a political dody the knights
will be ruled by dissentions the same as the
old political parties; this cannot be honestly
be disputed.

The Lehightou Fair.

The thirteenth annual exhibition of
the Carbon County Industrial society on
their beautiful grounds, in this place, last
week, was grand success both as regards
the number present each day and the ex-
hibits of live stock aud agricultural pro-
ducts. We are pleased to note that the
farmers are beginning to recognize the i'm
portance of making an exhibition of the
soil, etc. 1t is undoubtly an excellent
means of disseminating the knowledge ac-
quired by study and practice in the fields of
agriculture. The farmers having recognized
the Importance of agricultural fairs it is
safe to conclude that hereafter thy Lehigh-
ton fair will rank second to none in point
OF exhibits and excellence. Much credit is
due to Elven Bauer, secretary of the Indsu-
trial Society for his indefatigible efforts to
advance the society's interests.

1t will not do to accept too literally the pub
llshed statement that the Mormons are themselves
perfecting arrangements TO abolish polygamy In
Utah. The Joseph Smith faction, which has al
ways discOuntenanced plural marriage and denied
the authenticity OF the later revelation claimed by
Brigham Young. has been growing in power as the
sect at large has increased In general intelligence
and enlightenment, BUTT is very doubtful whether
It's strength is yet sufficient TO control the
policy Of the whole body. captain Goldman was
not far from right, probably, when he argued that
pOlygamy could safely be left to cure ITSELF in
view of the yearly additions to the gentle popua-
ton from without, the influx OF tourists from
highly civilized communities every summer, and
the necessity OF sending many OF the Mormon
youth OF both sexes out OF Utah to be educated
The moral forces which have been at work on the
whole race since society began have not passed
MOrmondom by. Accommodation by the elders
because OF refusal 10 seal or be sealed In plural
marriage has lost It's terrors for the younger and
better trained generations Nevertheless. 1t is
doubtful whether any constitutional prohibition OF
the celestial rite would be adopted in good faith
for some time yet. For the purpose OF inducing
Congress 10 admit the Territory to the Union,
there might be an ostensible concession, but the
chances are ten to one that 1t would not bear
scrutiny. At any rate the first constitutional con-
vention after the State was formally admitted and
against intrusion by the federal authority,
would be very likely TO adopt some amendment,
Innocent enough on It's face but effective to pro-
tect the practice Of polygamy from too pun
ishment. Few OF the states now In the Union at
tach any criminal penalty to concubinage pr Sc:
and IL would make little difference to the polyga-
mist leaders whether their domestic surplus went
before the world under one name or under an
other, as long as 1t was sail for the good of the
church"

The discovery Of dynamite bomb In the Grin

The discovery OF dynamite bomb In the Grim
1nal Court room at Chicago yesterday would have
created a decided sensation throughout the eoun-
Try had not the first thrilling narrative been fol-
lowed speedily by an explanation that robbed it
OF good deal OF its force. The bomb was at
first mistaken for base ball 1t might as well
have been one for all the danger to be feared from
IT, The press dispatches say that Judge Bakers
associates on the bench have been enjoying a.
nearly laugh over his alarm But a magistrate,
or any one else, would be quite justified ia feeling
alarmed at such discovery In a city where
half-dozen rufdans, found guilty OF conspiracy
10 murder by oomb-throwtng, succeed In keeping
justice at bay for fourteen months, with a fair
chance OF getting OF altogether. The distribu-
lion OF deadly explosives In Chicago Is not suffi-
GENTLY discouraged by the course OF events to
raise the presumption OF harmlessness in q dis
covered bomb.
